Q: printer paused on PC
HI
I'm running the latest El Capitain on a wireless network,
I have a windows 10 PC on the same Network which has a shared canon LBP6650 printer connected by USB
If on the macbook pro I go to system ---- printers----add printer---windows I can see my PC ( named France) and can seethe LBP6650 printer.
If I select the printer and generic PCL driver the printer is installed OK.
When I go to use it the Printer is shown as paused can anyone suggest a reason
Thanks
Ian

The standard rituals for fixing printer issues are here:
Resolve printer issues on your Mac - Apple Support
If these don't work the problem may lie at the PC end, i.e. is it correctly set up to accept connections of the type you are trying to make?
Have you tried connecting the printer directly to your Mac to rule driver issues in/out?
